The site is important for its association with the development of recreational activities in the district.
The court remnants are situated about 50 metres to the south of the hall. Regrowth timber covers the area of the two courts. Visible remains are the net posts and the netting fence on the southern edge.
The limitation of transport prior to the 1950's meant that communities provided local facilities. The Kenmare Tennis Club served those west of the town for many years. Indicative of its popularity is a photo of club members in 1939 which totalled 44 (including children). Better roads, faster cars and a dwindling rural population ultimately caused the demise of many of the isolated sporting clubs.
